In December 2004, scientists from the Albany Medical College in Albany, New York discovered that Maca root helps raise the tissue levels of IGF-1 (Insulin Growth Factor).
How Does Maca Affect the Body?

Impact of IGF-1 on the Body
Hormone balancing for women with a menstrual cycle, in peri-menopause, menopause, and post-menopause
Promotes libido, erectile function, healthy reproductive function

Royal Maca® is a life-changing alternative to testosterone therapy for men and hormone replacement therapy for women

One company continues to insist, with no independent research to back it up, that the color of Maca root matters as to how Maca root affects the hormones of men and women
Growers planted entire fields with seed from black Maca and red Maca
When harvested, the fields produced Maca roots of different colors!
This means the colors of the skins do not reflect genetic difference
Skin color is apparently dependent on variations in chemical composition of the soil in a particular field
9
Does the Color of the Maca Root Skin Matter?

Sun-drying is the traditional way to process Maca root in Peru
Phytochemicals essential for Maca’s hormone balancing power and anti-cancer properties, isothiocyanates, can only develop with sun drying
Maca roots are left to dry in the sun for 6-8 weeks after harvest
Machine drying in a few hours has become the norm. End result: weaker Maca.
Why is Sun-drying Important?
10
The Maca Roots in Royal Maca® are Sun-dried(which is rare in the marketplace)

Gelatinization is a form of heating at high temperature under pressure for a few seconds as an extrusion process
Eliminates enzymes that inhibit digestion and assimilation
Reduces carbohydrate content by 50% producing a potent powder concentrate
Reduces moisture content by 20%
Preserves all of the secondary metabolites responsible for the hormone-balancing effects of Maca root
Why is Gelatinization Important?
11
Royal Maca®
is Gelatinized!

What’s Wrong with Raw Maca?
Raw Maca has several drawbacks
Toxicity of the enzymes in raw Maca powder can cause serious stomach and intestinal distress
Ineffective for hormone balancing
So weak, it is never used in scientific studies Animal study shows it causes
low birth rate and growth rate
Requires large doses (1 tsp more) to have any effect at all
More expensive per serving for the consumer (check serving size on the package!)
Native Peruvians never eat raw Maca!
In the United States, it is the most common type of Maca sold.

Non-Royal Maca® Alternatives Used for Natural Hormone Balancing
©2019 WWB – Royal Maca Training, Part 1
DHEA - precursor to estrogen and testosterone
People who have heart problems, liver disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, thyroid problems, polycystic ovary syndrome, and a history of clotting problems should not use DHEA
DHEA may increase the risk of some cancers that are affected by hormones, like cancers of the breast, ovaries, and prostate
Hormone Replacement Therapy
Research from the American Cancer Society has conclusively shown HRT to lead to an increased chance of breast and uterine cancer, as well as stroke and dementia
Bioidentical hormones – long-term use causes ovary atrophy, may increase breast cancer risk
Birth control pills for painful periods – may increase risk of cancer, stroke, and blood clots
